Aaron,

I use a Debian SID. I prefer to compile my own kernels. So I recompiled
it with the SMP option. One had to select that option in order to see 2
processors.

I think the upgrade will greatly increase my productivity. It's so
faster than I can now display my video in the composito without having
to render it before. On my "old" projects made with cinelerra, I did not
used huge picture. It was then possible to play the video in the
compositor without any problem. But since I use those large pictures, I
had to render the video to view it since it was too slow in the
compositor.

As for the rendering, since there are 2 processors, cinelerra uses one,
and mpeg2enc (I render into mpeg2) uses the other one. What surprises me
is the fact that both processors are not used at 100%.

Now that dual cores processors are affordable, I think people using
Cinelerra often should consider that solution. I will probably save me a
lot of time!

Nicolas, Paris.
